The Fastest-Growing Cities In The U.S.

The Fastest-Growing Cities In The U.S.

The U.S.’ emerging cities are not experiencing the kind of super-charged growth one sees in the developing world, notably in China and India. Unlike Europe, North America’s population is slated to expand by well over 100 million people by 2050, much of it in the U.S. and much of it driven by continued immigration.

In the course of the next 40 years, the biggest gainers won’t be existing behemoths like New York, Chicago and Los Angeles, but less populous, easier-to-manage cities that are both affordable and economically vibrant.
